Delfini del Ponente APS is an italian NGO established in 2020 with the aim of monitoring the coastal marine wildlife to increase the knowledge and contribute to its protection. Research is carried on by marine biologists with skills and backgrounds linked to the cetology and ornitholgy worlds, but the team is composed also by people with different expertises. We are based in Imperia, Liguria, Italy and the data are collected year-round in the area enclosed by the French border and Capo Noli (Savona, Italy). Every month we host interns aiming at developping their skills in the marine research environment, learn specific protocols for wildlife monitorning, increase their knowledge on cetaceans, seabirds and research techniques to enter the scientific research world. Our team is also involved in scientific outreach and education to spread the knowledge on the highly biodiverse area of the Pelagos Sanctuary!
